World Class Veterinary Care

Like all medical professionals, zoo veterinarians are bound by an oath to provide the best possible care. Opportunities for discovery and improvement appear constantly. Diagnostic equipment, professional training and ongoing research projects are central to understanding and solving complex issues of individual animal health and wellbeing as well as species survival.

Since the Zoo's patients can't speak, sophisticated tools are especially important to veterinarians who may be working against the clock to save an animal or to learn more about the health of a population.

With your help, tools such as these will make a difference in the lives of Zoo animals – today and for years to come. Click here to view the entire veterinary care wish list.
